Patent EP-1087056-A2 (EP)
Inventor: FITZPATRICK KEITH
IPC: B32B27/40
Filed: 2000-07-04
Abstract: A resin-impregnated endless belt for a long nip
press or calender of the shoe type, or for other
papermaking and paper-processing applications, has a
base support structure which includes coated elements
having a coating of a first polymeric resin material.
The base support structure itself may be woven or
braided from yarns among which are included coated
yarns. The base support structure may also be a
spirally wound fabric strip having a number of non-overlapping,
abutting turns joined along a continuous
seam. Further, the base support structure may be a
laminated structure having more than one layer, each
of the layers being either a woven, braided or
spirally wound structure and each including coated
yarns having a coating of a first polymeric resin
material. The base support structure is in the form
of an endless loop, at least one of the inner and
outer surfaces of which is coated with a second
polymeric resin material. The second polymeric resin
materials impregnates the structure of the base
support structure, rendering it impermeable to oil and
water. The first and second polymeric resin materials
have an affinity for one another, so that the coating
of second polymeric resin material on the base support
structure as a whole establishes a chemical, as well
as a mechanical, interlock with the coated yarns
having the coating of first polymeric resin material.

Abstract: An acceleration device of a carburetor for a two cycle engine with a
rotary dual valve which controls air flow through both a scavenging passage and a
separate air intake passage each extending through a carburetor body. The carburetor
body houses a metering fuel chamber and an air reference chamber defined by a
diaphragm between them. Fuel in the metering fuel chamber is discharged through a
port into the air intake passage. An acceleration pump has an actuation chamber which
communicates with the scavenging passage and a pump chamber which communicates
with the air reference chamber and a membrane between them. During engine
acceleration the membrane is displaced by a pressure introduced into the actuation
chamber to forcibly send air into the air reference chamber from the pump chamber to
move, the diaphragm into the metering fuel chamber, and thereby increase the fuel
delivered to the air intake passage.

Abstract: Braking and shock absorbing are carried out using a combination of one or more fixed and moving parts (2, 5) with cooperating surfaces (4, 6) coated with a highly viscous liquid, so that once the moving mass (9) strikes the moving part (5), this part is moved towards the fixed part (2) over a given braking distance (s). As the fixed part is moved in relation to the fixed part, molecular friction is generated within the viscous liquid so that the kinetic energy of the moving mass is converted into frictional heat. An Independent claim is also included for the combined liquid braking and shock absorbing device used.

Abstract: The synchronization system uses a TDMA or AMPS air interface to provide
tuning synchronization between previously unsynchronized base stations. The
synchronization of base stations is critical between when determining the geographical
position of a mobile because the geographical position is determined using a time
difference of arrival method. In order to synchronize a remote base station with a
serving base station, the remote base station receives a signal from the serving base
station and measuring the receiving time of the signal at the remote base station in
relation to the clock of the remote base station. The synchronization system determines
the transmission time of the signal based on the reception time of the signal and the
distance between the base stations, in relation to the clock signal of the second station,
and synchronizes the clock of the remote base station to the clock of the serving base
station based on the offset in the clock cycles at the time the signal was transmitted.
